Are the highscores getting full?

[FooK-A-Ji]

In RSC, having 50 in a skill could make you like #7 on the highscores. Now, you need to be in like the 70's for most skills. Please don't hold my lack of ranked skills against me, but the discussion is this. Eventually, I think people will get better and better at skills and the requirement for newer players to be ranked will go up. Currently, I think the highscores are pretty much fair but in the next several years requirements could go into the 90's. Once people get to the 2 million skill limit others will do the same. Before long, the highscores will be so full of people with full experience in each skill that there will be no way to get new people in.

 

 

 

 

 

Discuss.

 

 

 

If that happens Jagex would just increase the number from 1 million, to 1.5 million or 2.

 

 

 

 

 

i believe rs has 6million members, 2 seems like a decent increase to the broadening of the ranks.

 

 

 

Cut that figure down to around 1 million, and you'll be closer.

 

 

 

They rounded 1 million players years ago..

consider this I was for all leveling purposes gone from runescape for almost 5 years. I was ranked #2 overall when I left. My kids logged on occasionally to keep the account alive and gained a point here or there.

 

So for 5 years my account pretty much sat stagnate.

 

When I logged on 4 weeks ago I was ranked 67895 in the overall (muhahaha a month later 28,000 of you are below me again :)

 

The point is if I didnt drop out of the top 100k in 5 years of almost total in activity I dont see where there will ever be a problem with the hi score being too full.

 

BTW I just did get ranked in RC and contuction and slayer. I am still un ranked in hunter.

 

 

 

Noob character I started a month ago and am only playing a few hours a day is ranked in att, hp, str,defence, cooking, fishing and fletching.

 

Anyway if someone who hasnt played for 5 years cant get out of the top 100k in that 5 years there is no problem other than players of today arent the players of yesterdaY
